And that includes thngs such as a 12' Half Giant. Note I do not buy into a reskinned Goliath or 4E Darksun at all so Dragonborn are right out as well along with Drow and Tieflings. A good chunk of the PHB classes and some of the races would also be unavailable.  ANyway I want make the Half GIant as a big bruiser of a PC race.  It would be somethig like.+4 Str, +2 Con+2 hit points per levelDouble Carrying Capacity (2E they had double hit points)Can use medium sized two handed weapons in one handMaybe 22 or 24 maxiumum strength (IDK) Note in Darksun I would also use a very very low rate of natural healing. 1HD a day regained sort of low. In 2E Darksun PCs were also more powerful than the PHB so I though to balance the Half Giant out the "mundane" races could each get a bonus feat. This fits into the old 2E thing of starting at level 3 and having 5d4 (or 6d4 drop the lowest) for ability scores. So how would you do a large PC race in 5E and no I am really really not interested in a refluffed Goliath as a half giant.</blockquote>
